Deafness and hearing assistance:

The following options are available for individuals who are deaf or heard of hearing.

Transcripts

Text transcripts provide a written equivalent of the sounds—both spoken, and natural/background noise—contained in video and audio media. We strive to provide transcripts for all of the audio and video content on this site. If you experience difficulty accessing a transcript, please contact our Webmaster at webmaster (at) welcomehomesrq.com.

Captioning

Captions are a specific type of transcript that are synchronized with audio and video tracks, then rendered visually (superimposed) onto the video. This enables simultaneous viewing of both transcript and audio/video content. We strive to provide captions for all of the audio and video content on this site. If you experience difficulty accessing a caption, please contact our Webmaster at webmaster (at) welcomehomesrq.com.

For YouTube videos, please see this article on how to turn on captioning.

Volume Controls

Volume controls exist on both hardware (your computer/device) and video player (e.g. YouTube, Vimeo, etc.) Visitors are encouraged to adjust the volume settings on both hardware and video players to achieve a desired sound level.

We invite visitors to contact us through our Contact Us page or by sending an email directly to our Webmaster at webmaster (at) welcomehomesrq.com.
